Researchers found that adults living in low-opportunity neighborhoods showed higher levels of CDKN2A RNA, a marker of cellular aging, suggesting social and economic disadvantage may accelerate biological aging. The findings indicate that chronic stress linked to limited jobs, income, and housing can become embedded at the cellular level, shaping long-term health outcomes. https://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.socscimed.2026.119196
